Through our studies, we will gain a deeper understanding of how historical events have shaped the world we live in today. Students will also get an understanding of how many different people from various backgrounds came together to make their world a better place. They will learn how even the underprivileged person can make a huge difference. When we see people for who they are, we can work towards building a more equitable and just society. This class is a space for respectful dialogue and critical thinking, and we will celebrate the diversity of our perspectives and experiences.

History can be scary or upsetting for kids because it often involves stories of war, violence, oppression, and injustice. Learning about these events can make children feel sad, angry, or frightened, especially if they cannot fully comprehend their reasons. Additionally, some historical events may hit close to home or affect their sense of identity, making them feel vulnerable or uncomfortable. However, it's important for children to learn about history so they can understand the world around them and make informed decisions about their future. By approaching history with empathy, critical thinking, and an open mind, children can navigate its difficult topics and use them as a catalyst for positive change.
Some of the books I use to create this class are: Women in the Civil War, The Inconvenient Indian, The First Conspiracy, The Wonders We Seek, Celtic Mythology for Kids, Many Holocaust books, Street Car to Justice, and more.
